Annoying rattle SOLVED... w/pics

Yeah, i had the same noisy rattle coming from the rear dome light/sunroof area, and it was driving me nut. It didn't seem like anybody had ever really pinned it down, much less pics to show how to get at any possible fix, so I started investigating. If you put down your sunroof/slife it back, and then push back the cloth cover/lid that covers the sunroof when not in us. Push it back far enuf so that you can see the black plate that goes all around the edge of the sunroof, and there on the rear side of the plate you will find 4 screw that are loose and rattle like crazy. I tightened em down, and the difference is amazing1 Absolutely no rattle! Now it feels like that $70,000 machine that it is..... I'd be glad to post some pics if anybody's interested....
